Quoted from aeneas:Another still had a full coin box, unfortunately still belgian franks (about $125 worth in value) but as was had converted to euro currency I couldn't exchange them anymore..
Is exchange not possible anymore in Belgium? In Germany it's no problem to convert old D-Mark into Euro. Some banks still exchange the old currency. You could even make a fortune by changing single Pfennige into single cents.
Some small change I'd keep out of nostalgia, but 125$ ain't that bad. that's alot of belgian chocolate and beer - yumm.....
